Chapter 35 Zhou Ding
"You can not believe it, not only you, but also me, who once questioned what Master told me. However, you don't have to jump to conclusions, as the rest of the story will make you more suspicious. β
Faced with Manli's question, Tian Kaijiang not only admitted it, but also prepared her to face even more incredible.
"Tian Ye, if what you want to say is just a story, we will each send a story meeting, and it will cost ten yuan, I believe that the history of the sect is true. Not to mention the history of the sect, it is the history of China, didn't it also start from the fantasy of Nuwa Niangniang refining stones to make up for the sky? You can not believe the things recorded in the history books, but they are indeed history. Just like the Classic of Mountains and Seas, is what modern people think is true necessarily true?"
It was Lang Baoyi who spoke, and his knowledge at this time gave him the advantage of expressing his opinion. But these words are clearly full of logical loopholes, and at best they are pandering.
Tian Kaijiang laughed, paused and said, "Believe it or not, don't be reluctant." I'm not done yet. If I were to convince you, I would never speak of these classics. But as I said, it is human nature that you do not believe. But I haven't started talking about the history of the sect yet. β
"Yes, yes, the head hasn't talked about the origin of our kitchen knife door yet!" Tan Feng almost urged Tian Kaijiang to continue.
Since then, Zhou Ding has disappeared as if he had never appeared, and no one has Zhou Ding's whereabouts. Later, Qin Shi Huang unified the world and also wanted to find Zhou Ding, but he looked for a needle in a haystack, where to find it! After all, he still did not find any clues. So he ordered Li Si to find a good job and make a jade seal for Bian and He's family. On the back of the jade seal is Li Si's handwritten eight characters: 'Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity.' Although talking is better than nothing, in terms of proving orthodoxy, it cannot be compared with Zhou Ding after all.
"When all the strongmen in the world are dead to Zhou Ding, the masters who have attained the Tao will determine that Zhou Ding is still in the Surabaya River through the art of looking at qi, but he will not show himself to the world. They knew that once Zhou Ding reappeared, it would be the same as the appearance of the unicorn to represent Confucius, which also indicated that the Great Sage was about to come into the world. They know the laws of heaven, so they are not in a hurry, but there are still people who are unwilling to miss it, and there are many people who are desperately trying to find out the whereabouts of Zhou Ding.
"But only one person has discovered the secret clue to find Zhou Ding! This person is the ancestor of the Kitchen Knife Sect, Yique Daoren. There are two lonely mountains on the edge of the Yellow River, one of which is Yique Mountain. This Taoist lived near Yique Mountain, lived a fairy-like life, and was the most intelligent, good at the art of looking at qi, and very good at studying the way of Qihuang. Since he was a child, his parents died, and he lived a life under the fence, but he only knew how to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and did a lot of good things to benefit others. Through the technique of looking at qi, he determined that Zhou Ding was still in the river and did not appear. But how to find Zhou Ding, he didn't have a clue for a long time. Untilβ"
Tian Kaijiang said that he was tired, drank a glass of water, looked around, and found that everyone was listening attentively. I don't know if it's because what he said is too boring, or if it's too charming.
"Tian Ye, don't sell Guanzi, until what?" Cao He scratched his ears and cheeks, uncomfortable, and couldn't wait to swallow the whole story.
Yique Daoist thought of the words of the sage: Ten steps of Ze, there must be fragrant grass. In the ten-room city, there will be loyal men. He thought of starting from the Surabaya River, the clue is on the riverbank, as long as he waits, he will always find something. After making up his mind, he moved to the upper reaches of the Surabaya River for ten years, ten years in the middle reaches, ten years downstream, and thirty years passed. β
"Is it Zhou Ding?"
"Of course not. Zhou Ding was extremely heavy and extremely large, and the ancestor saw that all that fell in the sky was a purple gas. The purple qi fell on the bank of the Surabaya River, and the ancestor knew in his heart that he had found a clue. That night, when he arrived at the shore, he picked up a dark green strange stone on the thousand-foot broken shore where the purple qi fell. At first, the ancestor thought that it was a piece of jade, and at best he said that he could make a fortune, but he didn't expect that after cutting it and peeling off the shell, it was a black stone flake. Tapping with his fingers, there was a metallic sound, but it didn't look like metal. The ancestor knew that it was a treasure, so he made a knife in the shape of a stone piece, which was the treasure of the sect. β
"Xuan Yuan is missing?"
Ye Chen heard this name for the first time, but he didn't expect the kitchen knife in his hand to have such a mysterious name, and he immediately remembered the name of the kitchen knife.
"Yes! Xuanyuan is a kitchen knife, and a kitchen knife is Xuanyuan. This name is the name given by the ancestors, from the ancestor has descended, passed down from generation to generation, each generation of the leader has a great responsibility, people are in the knife, and the knife is dead. Later, Shizu stumbled upon the secret of Zhou Ding's traces, recorded it, and prepared to pass it on to future generations. Unexpectedly, there was an accident. β
"Master Ancestor's mana is all over the sky, how can there be an accident?"
It was Manly who spoke, and now Manley was completely absorbed by the story, leaving all the doubts she had at the beginning behind.
"Shizu recorded it, and planned to find Zhou Ding's location when the time was ripe. Unexpectedly, the ancestor was too old at that time and almost died in the deep foothills. When he woke up, he found that it was a village girl who had rescued him. This village girl is our grandmother. When the ancestor saw her, the whole person was different, maybe this is the mystery of love. But Shizu has never forgotten his achievements, and when he thought about it, the bamboo slips that recorded the secret had been filled into the stove by Shizu and grandmother to boil soup. β
"Ahh
Everyone almost beat their chests one by one, and they were completely emotionally carried away by the story.
"Haha, you think it's all a made-up story, but I say it's actually very likely. After that incident, the ancestor engraved all the secrets on the body of the knife in accordance with the law of heaven and earth moving left and right. Xuanyuan Lack is a treasure, but also a taboo, the master of the punishment, in order to allow the masters of the past generations to be free to control, the ancestor of the Dao into the Xuanyuan Gap, and apply the Five Elements Shengke Law, as well as the number of the Hetu Luo Book, temporarily locked the Xuanyuan Lack similar to the curse of the magic power, over a thousand years, the power of this blockade will plummet to half of the original, until the power of the blockade is exhausted, Xuanyuan Lack will no longer be controlled by people, no one can control it, of course, the secret it records will disappear forever, Zhou Ding will never see the light of day, the world will not be at peace for a momentγ β
"Then, isn't the sect leader very dangerous? According to what Tian Ye said, two thousand years have passed since the power of this thousand-year-diminishing blockade, hasn't the kitchen knife already begun to lose control?"
It was Zhang Chun who asked this question. Whether Ye Chen can grasp the power of the church and live is connected to his purpose.
Tian Kaijiang said with a smile: "Therefore, almost all of our previous sect masters are immortal. Immortality is not the ability to die forever, but the ability to heal quickly from trauma. The probability of this kind of physique existing in the world is very low, so every sect leader will make the selection of a successor a top priority. Only a person with this kind of physique can dissolve the continuous damage caused by Xuanyuan's lack to the human body. If you force yourself to become a leader and ignore this, such a leader will die before the age of forty. β
After he said this, everyone looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was still quite sober, and hurriedly said at this time: "Don't worry, my master has told my fortune since I was very young, I am a lone star, and I am the most first-class poor, there is no one in the world who is more suitable for Xuanyuan than me." Even if Xuanyuan is short of punishment to restrain me, I am not afraid. You see how many springs and autumns I've been with kitchen knives now, aren't you still fine?"
But everyone was silent, they weren't sure if Ye Chen's physique was immortal, if not, he was destined to live to retirement age, it was really a pity to think about it.
"If being a sect leader is so dangerous, why are there so many people vying to be this sect leader?"
Cao He asked puzzledly.
"For the sake of power, for the sake of obtaining supreme power. Find Zhou Ding, and you can become the most powerful person in the world. At that time, it was not difficult to unify the whole world. β
"Hmm!"
Everyone suddenly realized, and couldn't help but sweat secretly for Ye Chen. There are too many people with ulterior motives on the rivers and lakes, if they all come to Ye Chen for power, then it will be difficult for Ye Chen to live past the retirement age.
"Although the world is declining, our kitchen knife door has always been very united, and there is no internal fire. However, in modern times, there are still some changes. It is believed that through the abduction of the sect leader by Uncle Fang, this incident reflects the current objective situation. Out of the kitchen knife door came the bad guys, conspirators. They want to control the sect leader and then get Xuan Yuanque. Trying to rely on the idle think tank and the so-called high-tech recruited by his command to crack the secret of Xuan Yuan's lack and find Zhou Dingβ’β’β’β’β’β’"
"I heard that the reason why my master and his old man left the sect and hid in a small mountain village was also to avoid greater infighting. β
Ye Chen thought of his master, he went to a small mountain village alone, living a poor and lonely life, and the reason inside was self-evident.
"Yes, Sect Leader Chen left the countryside to avoid infighting. I was in my teens at the time, the old sect leader drove the crane west, and passed the position of the sect leader to the low-key and loyal Chen sect leader, Chen sect leader was quiet and self-controlled, although the old sect leader passed the position of the sect leader to him, but the big guys in the kitchen knife door were not convinced, and put pressure on him many times, forcing him to hand over the position of the sect leader and Xuan Yuanqing. Sect Leader Chen is a good man, so naturally he will not agree. Finally, the soldiers met. Sect Leader Chen killed several people and fled to the rivers and lakes, but in the fight, his leg was also broken, and he fell ill. If it weren't for Yongshou's apologetics and the country's severe crackdown, which objectively covered Sect Leader Chen's retreat, I'm afraid that Sect Leader Chen's life would have been lost in that internal strife. β
Ye Chen's eyes were full of tears, he instantly thought of his master's everything, his nose was sore, and two lines of tears fell. He poured down a sip of the liquor and asked faintly:
"Tian Ye, who was unfavorable to my master in the first place?"
